SUMMARY:SOCAN's Master Climate Protector
DESCRIPTION:Modeled on the extremely popular Jackson County Master Gardener and Master Recycler programs\, SOCAN’s Master Climate Protector (MCP) program incorporates both a training component and a service component. It is designed for individuals who want to know more about Climate Change and what we can do to address this critical problem. \nMaster Climate Protectors are trained volunteers who work to inform and educate the public about the science of climate change and its consequences. They work within their communities and local governments to promote personal and collective actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and serve as an educational outreach for climate literacy. \nThe 10-week training course\, beginning February 11\, 2019 covers climate change science and the impacts on key sectors of energy\, transportation\, agriculture\, water and others. Within each sector is a focus on global and local impacts\, personal and collective mitigating actions and measurements on how to reduce your greenhouse gas footprint. The course includes an up to date training manual\, discussion based classes\, and presentations from local and regional experts. \n

SUMMARY:Postponed!!! SOCAN Monthly Meeting - Bugged by Global Warming: Insects in a Changing Climate
DESCRIPTION:Meeting postponed due to snow. Will reschedule. \nRelated article: Iconic butterflies are scarce in Idaho in Medford Mail Tribune January 26\, 2019 \nWe know about dwindling snowpack\, polar ice caps\, and increasing wildfire risk\, but these aren’t the only climate change consequences we are experiencing. Among the creatures that are most seriously compromised by the climate trends we are witnessing and will suffer into the future are our insect friends. While many of us think of insects as mere bugs to be swatted\, there is more to this class of animals than just being our enemies. Indeed\, without insects pollinating our crops\, we’d all be going hungrier. And without butterflies gracing our flowerbeds\, especially monarchs – an important indicator species for changes in our ecosystem – we’d be esthetically much the poorer. \nDuring the next Southern Oregon Climate Action Now monthly general meeting\, on Tuesday February 26th at 6:00 pm at the Medford Public Library\, we will explore what is happening to insects and why. \nKristina Lefever from The Pollinator Project Rogue Valley will outline disturbing trends in insect populations worldwide\, Recovering entomologist Alan Journet will discuss why insects are especially susceptible to current climate trends\, and Robert Coffan from Southern Oregon Monarch Advocates will provide an update on the recent 99.4% plummet in the western monarch population\, along with an interesting climate-related prediction on their overwintering sites. \nAll SOCAN programs are free and open to the public. \n \n

SUMMARY:Ashland Climate Change Youth Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Come hear what Ashland Teens are thinking about climate change. The 4th event of the Ashland Youth Climate Challenge is taking on some surprising topics: How supporting women globally is a key and how a closer look at love can empower us. This month we will address a tough transition that needs to get moving: The transportation sector. It’s happening this Saturday\, March 9\, from 11 to 12:30 pm\, at the Unitarian Church (87 Fourth Street in Ashland). These community presentations spring out of a new class taught by Jim Hartman at Ashland High School: Climate Change Solutions. \nWe have two special guests this time. James Stephens\, president of Southern Oregon Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Association (SOHEVA) will talk about buying electric cars. Our second guest speaker will be a member of Southern Oregon Climate Action Now (SOCAN)\, who will give an update on Oregon’s Clean Energy Jobs Bill (HB2020). \nEnjoy a light snack\, hot drink and conversations afterwards. \nThis is not a community forum\, but a chance to hear what our young people have to say plus to give key players in our community a chance to be heard. Support our youth by attending and listening to what they have to share! \nThis month’s Ashland Climate Change Youth Challenge is supported by the Rogue Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship and Southern Oregon Climate Action Now. \n

SUMMARY:Building a Better Relationship with Fire; A Hike and Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Like many areas in the American West\, the Klamath-Siskiyou region will be subject to more drought\, increased wildfire occurrence\, and conversion of habitats. Climate change necessitates that we adapt our communities and our landscapes as best we can. KS Wild is helping lead an effort to translate climate science to on-the-ground land management through education\, advocacy\, and public forest planning efforts. \nKS Wild invites you to join them on March 23rd for a hike and discussion on 21st century fire management. They are co-hosting this presentation with retired Forest Service fire professional (and Applegate resident) Rich Fairbanks. \nThe event will start with a moderately easy hike into the public lands surrounding Yale Creek where BLM just performed a prescribed burn on 300 acres as part of a fuels reduction operation. After the hike we will be meeting at the Yale Creek Community Building to hear Richard present on historical fire and land management and how essential prescribed fire is as a tool to protect homes and communities while maintaining forest health and resiliency. There will be plenty of time for questions and answers and time to network with land owners and forestry workers. \nHike 11:00 am – 1:00 pm \nLunch 1:00 – 2:00 pm \nPresentation & DiscuYale Creek COmmunity Centerssion 2:00 – 4:00 pm \nThe event will start with a moderately easy hike into the public lands surrounding Yale Creek where BLM just performed a prescribed burn on 300 acres as part of a fuels reduction operation. After the hike we will be meeting at the Yale Creek Community Building to hear Richard present on historical fire and land management and how essential prescribed fire is as a tool to protect homes and communities while maintaining forest health and resiliency. There will be plenty of time for questions and answers and time to network with land owners and forestry workers. \nKS Wild’s Fire & Climate campaign\nAs communities in southwest Oregon come off one of the most active wildfire seasons in recent memory\, KS Wild is increasingly concerned with the national dialogue around wildfires and forest management. The Trump Administration is doubling down on its rhetoric to use wildfires as an excuse to hand over public forest management to the timber industry. Locally\, this has translated into many local county commissions and elected leaders calling for aggressive\, industrial public lands logging. \nKS Wild is already starting to build the \nframework for our emerging Fire & Climate campaign. One of the tenets of the campaign is to provide more educational resources for our local communities in southwest Oregon and northwest California. Since last summer\, our new Fire Resources page is the most visited part of the KS Wild website. We will also be hosting more events like the one we’re having on March 23rd in order to give local residents an opportunity to learn from fire professionals like Rich Fairbanks. \nWith your participation and ongoing support\, KS Wild’s Forest & Climate Initiative will create space for a) conversations about the role of fire; b) the need for forest management to be driven by restoration (rather than exploitation) of forests; and c) the need for community protection. \nBeyond community outreach\, KS Wild’s ongoing advocacy will have a significant impact well beyond our region\, especially as there are efforts to transform management across 25 million acres of National Forests from California to Washington state. KS Wild is currently working with key allies to develop a Pacific Northwest focused campaign that will influence federal land managers to incorporate climate change adaptation into forest management plans. \n

SUMMARY:HB2020 Oregon 's Climate Action Program - Josephine County Democrats
DESCRIPTION:HB2020 – Oregon’s Climate Action Program \nAs reports confirm the dire future humanity faces if we fail to address global warming and reign in the climate chaos it is causing\, our Federal Government stand firm in its rejection of the science and the need for action. As a result\, responsibility falls upon the states and local jurisdictions to assume the mantle of action. \nWith the commitment of Oregon’s political leadership to take action on global warming\, the Joint Committee on Carbon Reduction\, has developed and introduced a draft legislative proposal to establish a statewide Climate Action Program. Not surprisingly\, the usual corporate suspects have orchestrated a campaign to promote fear of the consequences of such a program that is based on distortion and misinformation. \nAt the next meeting of the Josephine County Democratic Party\, Alan Journet and Kathy Conway\, co-facilitators of Southern Oregon Climate Action Now\, will provide a brief summary of this legislative proposal and answer questions about its potential economic impact. \n \n

SUMMARY:SOCAN Monthly Meeting: Community Solar - New Possibilities
DESCRIPTION:Leading by example is what we want Oregon to do when it comes to breaking our fossil fuel addiction and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Talent can do the same for the Rogue Valley when it comes to the solar energy conversion! \nCopyright Nikifor Todorov | Dreamstime.com \nThe global warming and climate change problems posed by fossil fuel use are well-understood\, and well-known to most of us. Many of us would like to break our personal fossil fuel addiction in terms of powering our homes\, but obstacles still exist. Beside the investment cost\, renters and those living in unsuitable locations or with unsuitable home orientations confront serious barriers to solar installation. However\, despite what you think\, solar could be within your grasp. \nThe good news is that many obstacles can be overcome. This year\, Talent will be forging a path to the sun for those who didn’t think they could solarize. Solarize Rogue is a branch of Rogue Climate which has already stimulated a community-wide clean energy plan in conjunction with the City of Talent. They are inviting other regional residents and Pacific Power customers to join them in this venture. \nAppleMark \nPacific Power provides electricity to much of the region\, but currently generates some 60% of its power from coal-fired plants. No energy source is totally benign\, but we can break the grip of this coal-fired energy source by going solar ourselves and replacing the electricity we use from the grid with electricity from a clean solar source. \nLearn more about how you can break the fossil fuel addiction at a presentation on the Talent Community Solar Project at the next Southern Oregon Climate Action Now general meeting on Tuesday March 26th\, 6:00 pm\, at the Medford Public Library\, 205 S. Central\, Medford. Ray Sanchez Pescador from Solarize Rogue and Bridget Callahan from Sustainable Northwest will explain how Community Solar could help you break the fossil fuel habit. SOCAN programs are free and open to the public; please come with your questions. \n
